For many musculoskeletal conditions, education, progressive exercise, and activity modification can improve pain and function without aggressive treatment. Conservative care is an active treatment path—not simply waiting. A physical therapist can help guide you. Source: Systematic review, The Lancet (Foster et al., 2018).

Why it Works Wednesday

Persistent wrist pain may be influenced by how you position and use your hands and arms throughout the day. Physical therapy examines these movements and recommends practical adjustments to reduce irritation and make work tasks more comfortable.

From Israel to Cape Cod—four weeks of learning and collaboration.

We recently welcomed Israeli physical therapist Alon Yehiel to Cape Cod Rehabilitation and FitPlan Cape Cod for a four-week Burdenko Method internship.

Alon works with elite and Olympic-level athletes and is affiliated with the Ribstein Sports Medicine and Research Center at Israel’s Wingate Institute. During his time here, he trained with Eric Chandler and Joe Carroll, completing both Part I and Part II Burdenko Method certifications.

The Burdenko Method combines exercise in water and on land to develop balance, coordination, flexibility, endurance, speed, and strength. These are the same principles we bring to our work with local patients and fitness members—from people recovering from injury to those building strength and staying active.

For our team, the internship was also an opportunity to exchange ideas with a colleague bringing experience from international sports rehabilitation.

Congratulations, Alon! We look forward to seeing how you apply what you learned back in Israel.

Many of you may have seen photos of a vehicle that struck the front window and entered the gym area at our Mashpee facility. We are very grateful that no patients, members, or staff were injured. We have also spoken with the driver, who confirmed that she is doing well.

Thank you to everyone who has reached out with concern and support. We will share any updates regarding appointments, classes, or gym access here. The gym and Physical Therapy areas are fully operational.
